Every morning, we gather here to contemplate, plan, soak up inspiration, harvest motivation, and get jacked up on coffee and confidence for a day of kicking ass.
TODAY, I BRING YOU AN ICON FROM YOUR CHILDHOOD. A BLAST FROM THE PAST. A MAN YOU SHOULD RESPECT WHETHER YOU AGREE WITH HIS GENERAL DISPOSITION OR NOT. A MAN YOU SHOULD PROBABLY FEAR AT LEAST A LITTLE. LADIES LOVE HIM AND MEN WANT TO BE HIM. THIS MAN IS GOING TO GET YOU FIRED UP FOR YOUR DAY. HE’S GOING TO INSPIRE YOU TO NOT BE A PUSHOVER THIS MORNING. I’M TALKING ABOUT A LARGE MAN — BRUTISH, SOME MIGHT SAY. I’M TALKING ABOUT A MAN WHO IS AFRAID OF NOTHING. HE TAKES WHAT HE WANTS. HE HAS HAIR ON HIS CHEST AND BALLS IN HIS SACK. HE UNDERSTANDS THAT OVERSIZED WOLFLIKE MAN-BEASTS ARE A THREAT TO OUR SOCIETY. YOU CAN’T STOP HIM — YOU CAN ONLY HOPE TO CONTAIN HIM. HIS NAME IS GASTON AND HE IS HERE TO PUMP (CLAP) YOU UP.
If you’re not fired up right now I don’t know what to tell you. Male or female, that song should rev your engine good. A nice, nostalgic rev deep down in your innards. We should all strive to be a little bit more like Gaston.
Odds are, some of you are actually too fired up now and need to chill out a little. For that, I also have a remedy. Watch this next video and just have yourself a nice chuckle. Not a full-on laugh, but a hearty chuckle. Sip your coffee and smile. Then you’ll be ready to mercilessly destroy Wednesday.
What’s on your schedule this morning? What are you going to conquer today? Let us know in the comments section below. Positivity only. Build the energy. Come correct or don’t come at all..

There could almost be an ongoing article of powermoves/tfms with Gaston.
New PRs in the gym last night got me all sorts of motivated for this Wednesday. Gonna crush some content, slay some meetings and set myself up for a Cruise-Control Friday.

Phone interview this morning. Let’s get them dollars.
THEY TOOK SAS OFF MY COMPUTER SO I CANNOT ACTUALLY DO A SINGLE PART OF MY JOB. IM JUST GOING TO SIT HERE AND DRINK JAVA AND WORK ON MY PERSONAL BUDGET AND MAYBE DO SOME LIGHT READING AFTER LUNCH ON THE IPAD.
Today Billy I’m taking on a new responsibility at my job. Now going to be in charge of managing the cash for one of our businesses. A nice iced Carmel Macchiato to rev up my engines as I cruise into work.
No coffee yet. Did cardio before bed which was a terrible life choice. But ya know what? It’s okay. Because I get to go home today. Actual home. Into a four day-off stretch. I’ll get coffee there. Or just sleep. It’s cool.
